Things to do in Cologne

we bought the tickets in germany by mistake. but we went to the switzerland zurich one and it was amazing. so worth the trip. no need for tour as its easy to navagate and have little audio devices telling all stories ..chocolate tasting was the most fun part kids loved it. and the store was great. highly recommend the zurich branch and for sure its equally nice in germany.

You can use platform discount coupons when booking on the platform. After placing the order, you will receive a voucher. Take this voucher to the tourism center, which is located right next to Cologne Cathedral (visible as soon as you exit the train station) and is very easy to find. The staff will provide a physical Cologne Card. You write your name, date, and time on-site to activate the start time. The staff will also instruct you to insert the card into the machine to validate it when using public transportation.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit here, the tour was really interesting and interactive as well. You also got a little bottle of fragrance as part of the visit!

The Zoo was very nice. somewhat limited with signage and directions. The staff were friendly enough.

Honestly, this was my first bike tour, and now I don't understand why I hadn't done it sooner. For Cologne, it's the perfect format: the cycling infrastructure is so convenient that you can ride completely relaxed and enjoy the city. What I liked most was that we saw many places I didn't even know existed. Guidebooks usually show the same old spots, but here we discovered hidden gems I definitely wouldn't have found on my own. And the guide was simply wonderful: he told stories in an interesting and humorous way, which made the tour even better.
